On my way to stand in line at the grocery store, I heard one of the local talking heads rattle off a list of “essential” businesses remaining open this week. They should have made a list of stuff NOT open. Seems like government and eateries are the only things shut down. Traffic was light, but not enough.
Looks like that infection curve will climb steeply, quickly.
“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” – Isaac Asimov
